In a large mixing bowl, combine the glutinous rice flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk these dry ingredients together until fully blended.
In a separate bowl, mix together the almond milk, vanilla extract, and neutral oil until well combined.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be slightly thick but pourable.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet with a small amount of oil if necessary.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a round shape if needed.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes carefully and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with your choice of fresh fruit.
